The wedding cake is the focus of most of wedding receptions. The tradition of cake cutting is so important that no one will leave the reception before the cake is cut. Accounting for this, it is extremely important to have a good choice of wedding cake. A badly chosen wedding cake may ruin the whole wedding reception. Indeed the wedding cake is also one of the foci for wedding photographs. Normally, the factors we need to consider when choosing a wedding cake are the size of it, the design or the outlook of the cake, and the flavors.
Size of the cake
The first thing a couple needs to consider is the size of the cake. It is vital to understand that a wedding cake is meant to be sharing the joy of wedding but not showing off the wealth of the couple. To this end the size of the cake should be determined by the number of guests.
This seems very straight forward that the size of cake should be determined by the number of guests but many couples make the following mistake - they only count and estimate the number of guests who are going to attend the wedding reception. In fact the couple may want to send a piece of cake to a guest who cannot attend the wedding reception. A couple should keep in mind that the cake is meant to be sharing the joy of getting married, there is no reason why a couple does not share the joy of wedding with the guests who cannot attend the wedding reception.
As a result the size of the cake should be determined by the number of guests who will attend the wedding reception and the number of guests who cannot. Certainly it will be totally a waste if the cake is too big and the cake cannot be shared among the guests if it is too small.
Design of the cake
After the size of the cake is determined, the couple can start to think about the design of the cake. The very first thing a couple needs to do is to get some pictures of wedding cakes from the cake maker or the baker. This is very important since the couple can get a rough idea about what the baker they hire usually makes and also the quality of the cake.
At the same time the couple can take reference for their unique wedding cake design from the photos. When the basic concept of the cake design is formed, the couple can try to visualize the final design of the cake by using the wedding cake design software.
With the cake design software, the couple can try to compose and test different possible design options of the cake. They may want the design of the cake follows the main theme of the wedding reception. Matching the colors will be something essential. On the contrary, the cake can also be designed in a way that it is totally unique and contrasting with the wedding theme.
Wedding cake design software is a very useful tool for visualizing the cake. However, the couple should bear in mind that the software only renders a computer drawing of the cake, it is not the cake itself. The final outcome will be a bit different from what is seen on the monitor.
